Zhou Xuelin is lecturer in the Department of Film, Television and Media Studies of the University of Auckland.
“Zhou Xuelin’s Young Rebels in Contemporary Chinese Cinema is a very exciting addition to the burgeoning field of Chinese film studies. The scope of Zhou’s research is extraordinarily deep and broad, and among the other achievements of Young Rebels is its stretching the corpus of Chinese filmmaking in the 1980s beyond a canon of Fifth Generation classics, its discussion of film and popular music from Taiwan-born Teresa Tang, through the ‘Northwest wind style’ to rock ’n’ roll, and its comparison and contrast of Chinese films with those of the ‘angry young man’ generation in Britain of the late 1950s and early 1960s.”– Peter Rist, Professor, Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema, Concordia University
